It's basically only going to cause problems for used game shops, like Game Stop. I'm sure they'll work out some kind of method with the publishers and/or manufacturers to sell used games with new activation codes or somethings.

I bought a used copy of Sain'ts Row the Third for my PS3 a while back and my friend did the same since we wanted to try out the online co-op mode. I was quite pissed off when I discovered that each new copy of the game comes with a unique activation code that can only be used once and is needed to use the co-op mode. I had to buy a new code on the Playstation Network store. The people at the GAME shop where I bought the game told me nothing of this. In the end, it would actually have been cheaper to download the game from PSN..

Gameplay on PCs being superior is your opinion. Please, don't mix facts with opinion while calling the opinion facts.

No matter what you think, there are some really nice, exclusive games for the gaming consoles: games that most people wouldn't really be as nice played on a keyboard and mouse.

Yeah, he's almost 80 and still sharper in a debate than any other of the presidential candidates. In my eyes, Romney looks like a real dimwit next to Paul in a debate, and I'm pretty sure Obama would too. What would president Obama do without his trusty teleprompter?

PIPA also means "pipe" in Swedish. I guess that's what they were smoking when they came up with this bill. Also, SOPA means "piece of garbage".
